Theory of weakly damped free-surface flows: a new formulation based on potential flow solutions
نویسنده
چکیده
Several theories for weakly damped free-surface flows have been formulated. In this paper we use the linear approximation to the Navier-Stokes equations to derive a new set of equations for potential flow which include dissipation due to viscosity. A viscous correction is added not only to the irrotational pressure (Bernoulli’s equation), but also to the kinematic boundary condition. The nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation that one can derive from the new set of equations to describe the modulations of weakly nonlinear, weakly damped deep-water gravity waves turns out to be the classical damped version of the NLS equation that has been used by many authors without rigorous justification.

Viscous potential free-surface flows in a fluid layer of finite depth
It is shown how to model weakly dissipative free-surface flows using the classical potential flow approach. The Helmholtz–Leray decomposition is applied to the linearized 3D Navier–Stokes equations. The governing equations are treated using Fourier–Laplace transforms. We show how to express the vortical component of the velocity only in terms of the potential and free-surface elevation. A new p...
متن کاملThe effect of disturbances on the flows under a sluice gate and past an inclined plate
Free surface potential flows past disturbances in a channel are considered. Three different types of disturbance are studied: (i) a submerged obstacle on the bottom of a channel; (ii) a pressure distribution on the free surface; and (iii) an obstruction in the free surface (e.g. a sluice gate or a flat plate). Surface tension is neglected, but gravity is included in the dynamic boundary conditi...

Simulation of free surface flow and sudden wave profile are recognized as the most challenging problem in computational hydraulics. Several Eulerian/Lagrangian approaches and models can be implemented for simulating such phenomena in which the smoothed particle hydrodynamics method (SPH) is categorized as a proper candidate. The incompressible SPH (ISPH) method hires a precise incompressible hy...

The water wave generation by wave paddle and a freely falling rigid body are examined by using an Incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (ISPH). In the current ISPH method, the pressure was evaluated by solving pressure Poisson equation using a semi-implicit algorithm based on the projection scheme and the source term of pressure Poisson equation contains both of divergence free ve...

The main objective of this paper is to formulate a mathematical model for finding flow field and cavitation problem on dam spillways. The Navier-Stokes Equation has been applied for the computation of pressure and velocity field, free water surface profiles and other parameters. Also, for increasing accuracy of the problem, viscosity effect has been considered. Because of internal flows the eff...
